Magic is no longer confined to dank dungeons where half-mad hermits perform timeless rites. Spellcasters can now be found in every walk of life, from the bedroom to the boardroom. Ancient traditions mixed with the hippest trends result in spells and trinkets that are as chic as they are powerful.

Modern Magic, Volume Two includes:

New spells created with a modern perspective, such as kill switch and cranial hard drive.

New magic items the combine cutting edge technology with arcane powers, such as closed-circuit stickers and Jimmy's credit card.

Rules for Voudon spellcasting, the Loa, and ritual possessions.

Details on using forensic science to investigate magical crimes, including the new Arcane Investigator advanced class.

Talismans, natural elements, and rituals that nonspellcasters can use to protect themselves from magical attack.

Modern Magic, Volume Two is the second in a two-volume series aimed designed to bring a fresh, contemporary feel to the magic and spellcasting in your modern d20 System game.

Modern Magic, Volume Two is a well written and quite useful product.
I recommend this product to anyone running a D20 Modern game in which FX is used. Plenty of spells, and many great ideas abound in this product.
More to the point, plenty of va [...]

I really liked Modern Magic Volume One, and I have to say I like Modern Magic Volume Two even more. The rules for Voudon magic ("Voodoo") are my favorite part of this PDF - a clever modern take on the excellent Voudan rules from Skull [...]

An exceptional product (the guys at The Game Mechanics never do any less) that any FX or Urban Arcana campaign should incorporate. I could have done with less voodoo, and seee that space used for more items, spells, feats, classes, magical talen [...]

Quality writing, very well laid out, with decent artwork, modern Magic Vol 2 brings us Voodoo, minor magic items for mundanes, and a whole bunch of new spells and FX items. As always the quirky names of the items are great fun (A superhero t-shi [...]

These products were created by scanning an original printed edition. Most older books are in scanned image format because original digital layout files never existed or were no longer available from the publisher.

For PDF download editions, each page has been run through Optical Character Recognition (OCR) software to attempt to decipher the printed text. The result of this OCR process is placed invisibly behind the picture of each scanned page, to allow for text searching. However, any text in a given book set on a graphical background or in handwritten fonts would most likely not be picked up by the OCR software, and is therefore not searchable. Also, a few larger books may be resampled to fit into the system, and may not have this searchable text background.

For printed books, we have performed high-resolution scans of an original hardcopy of the book. We essentially digitally re-master the book. Unfortunately, the resulting quality of these books is not as high. It's the problem of making a copy of a copy. The text is fine for reading, but illustration work starts to run dark, pixellating and/or losing shades of grey. Moiré patterns may develop in photos. We mark clearly which print titles come from scanned image books so that you can make an informed purchase decision about the quality of what you will receive.

Original electronic format

These ebooks were created from the original electronic layout files, and therefore are fully text searchable. Also, their file size tends to be smaller than scanned image books. Most newer books are in the original electronic format. Both download and print editions of such books should be high quality.
